I have been relentlessly working through all the threads from rinsed hoop to the 30p mortgage saga and wonderfully threads they are. I wanted to like her (honest) but with her relentless spin on twitter is getting me quite cross. I once wanted to give her some (cooking) advice but didn't realise how jealously she guards people of not letting anyone reply. I have cooking credentials 20 yrs in catering, ran my own (but not quite) café and loads of other things, but I've never seen a menu of quite honestly utter bs. I have come to the other side now, and glad AM wrote what she did, otherwise |I wouldn't be here. When she started spouting of about her MH, gender stuff etc my nose twitched, it got even. more twitchier when she said she was an alkie. I thought wtf next? Anyway I digress. If she has booze problems and goes to AA there is no need to scream about it (sponsor's will not let a person boast and they wouldn't be very pleased about the attention seeking she so obviously desires - pride etc)
Spoke to OM (mine) and he said surely if she is being fraudulent with all her patreon followers, (promising things and giving sweet fa back) well she is indeed being fraudulent, but no one on her specially picked out people are allowed to tell her that.
 
Things are about to get rough for a lot of people this autumn/winter, and I think it's going to make a dent in Jack's piggy bank.

What's the first thing you cut when you need to save money? Unnecessary outgoings, such as subscriptions, donations etc. Especially when those outgoings don't actually result in tangible goods.
 
You can get 300 biscoff or a 1.35kg bucket of Nutella from Amazon (scrolling through the catering section because I cba doing anything else).

I asked Mrs T how long it would take her to eat 300 biscoff and she said “normally or as a challenge?”

I think if someone wants to send me 300 biscoff we could have some fun…
 
Jack sent me a Twirl in the post once so she must be OK.

I don’t believe for a second she sent anyone a Twirl. This is the only sort of twirl that preening praise-seeker is into. “Now tell me I’m just the cutest little gal in shoe-leather Rhett squigs!”

I wonder why she's decided to pen a recipe for her circa 2018 blog. Is she trying to show she can cook, or that she actually does do some work? 🤔
She views herself as an alchemist with her recipes (cc the semifreddo) which is fine, and it is fine to experiment and be inventive whilst you figure out what your own preferences are. But people who are below the breadline using food banks cannot afford to be so inventive. If they are relying on food banks to keep their children and themselves from going hungry, the last thing they want to do is waste a few valuable tins and the energy costs to plate up something nobody would eat. It’s sad.
 
Shappi is a dipstick anyway. Went on Danny Dyer’s The Wall and was abysmal. She can keep her Twirl.

Completely by the by but I was at an improv workshop with her (she was there, we didn't go together) many years ago and she was hanging on to her then boyfriend throughout. As if she thought someone might steal him away. He was a just starting out comic - can't remember if he made it. I just thought her behaviour was odd, as nobody wanted her boyf, we were just there for the improv, man.
 
Hello lovely canal, i've been lurking for ages but this latest chaos has tipped me over into joining in.

I was wondering if Jack's insistence on her £1 patreon subscribers is partly because if they're donating less than the lowest tier, she can't possibly "owe" them any of the promised patreon goodies, because those only start at the proper tiers? To be honest, I doubt she's thought it through that far.
 
Shappi - used to love her, watched her about 5 years ago and thought thrush was funnier.

Jack - where.to.begin? I have been grunking FOREVER. I can’t believe her patreon numbers are going up despite the evidence 😭
(I did a good grunk in the gym this morning whilst bench pressing the Queen. I love a gym grunk because I use their wifi and it heartens me to think there’s a chance that whoever checks the websites visited learns about Jacks grift and passes that message on.)
